>For SF Bay Area c'punks: There are only three days left to get special
>advance tickets for friends of EFF.  This year the EFF Fillmore
>benefit on June 18 stars Bob Weir's band Ratdog, which John Perry
>Barlow has been writing some new songs with.
>
>After Sunday, the tickets go on open sale through Bass; given the
>number of Deadheads in San Francisco, we expect them to sell out.  You
>could wait and save $15 -- but you might miss out.  And that $15 will
>support EFF, including the Bernstein case and our other crypto
>initiatives.  See http://www.eff.org/fillmore.
>
>See you there!!!  It won't quite be a cypherpunk meeting, but it'll
>definitely be a cypherpunk party!

>Dear Friends of the EFF,
>
>Here's a special, behind-the-scenes invitation to OFFLINE with the
>Electronic Frontier Foundation, its Third Annual Benefit Rock Concert at
>San Francisco's legendary Fillmore Auditorium.
>
>In Internet time, we believe three years officially qualifies EFF's
>Fillmore event as a Silicon Valley tradition!  Join us on Friday, June 18
>for a raucous night of partying with Bobby Weir and his band, Ratdog, plus
>the Flying Other Brothers Band, Woodside, and guests.  The event promises
>to be great fun and all proceeds will go to support the work of EFF in
>protecting free expression, privacy, and security online.
>
>For this week only, we are making available a block of general admission
>tickets for $50.  This being San Francisco and with Ratdog (not to mention,
>the FOBs and Woodside) on the program, the event is expected to sell out.
>Advance tickets are only available via EFF's Fillmore site at
>http://www.eff.org/fillmore.
>
>We look forward to seeing you there!
